Crossing Borders - A School Partnership Project for Safer Internet Day February 6th, 2007
What is the Safer Internet Day Blogathon Competition? It is an annual event that begins on Safer Internet Day. It will start on February 6th, 2007. Postings on the blog start on February 1st and carry on until February 6th, when the blogathon goes live. For the following week, until February 13th, the blog is open for comments.
Who can enter?Students aged up to 18. You will need to work with a teacher and a partner school from any of the 28 following Insafe countries: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, United States of America.
What is the task? The task for participating students is to prepare awareness materials focusing on the chosen theme. During the project, you will reflect on e-privacy, netiquette or images, and look at how they work in public virtual spaces (social-networking sites).

One school in the partnership, the "leader" school will register the team for the competition and be responsible for posting the project outcome in the blogathon.
